Does ExpressJet have a Raleigh base? Don't think so.

BBjay,

I flew at Gojet on furlough. A lot of furloughed dudes there, although I think quite a few have been recalled to Unical by now.
3 of us in my class had plenty of Afghani flying. Gojet was a welcome change. I enjoyed my time there at G7.

Don't be, it will not hurt you in the slightest in your career. It is just another regional. These kids on there know little to nothing to be honest. Enjoy class and congrats!

Considering you applied to GoJetzzz, I assumed you're in desperate need of a job. Now since you're swimming with no class scheduled or no clue when one will be, and you're desperate for a job, I thought I would be so kind as to let you know you probably will get a class date at ExpressJet before GoJetzzz. However, it seems that you're not so much into anyone's advice and just wanted to stir the pot by another GoJetzzz thread.

That's all I have to say about that, in before the lock.

Well said.

It amazes me that so few know how many furloughed United guys fly/have been flying, at GoJets. Now, those who badmouth GoJet, would be the first to stand in line trying to get an interview with UAL once they start hiring. And they can’t wait.

I flew with a pilot not long ago who was badmouthing GoJet and telling me how it’s a ‘career killer’ and , lo and behold, we had a GoJet pilot, a UAL furlough, jump-seating up front on our last leg of the day, and my colleague actually had the gall to ask him for a reference for his UAL application. YES, he asked the GoJet guy for a reference.

Irony?

Hypocrisy?

I bet my career on this fact: each one of the GoJet haters would stand in line to get a reference from a GoJet pilot whose ‘UAL credentials’ would help her/him get interview/job with UAL.

In all fairness, the UAL furloughs you speak of had a job handed to them by G7 straight into the left seat. It's much different than a guy prepping to interview and swallow that disgusting contract as an FO.
